engge: a Thimbleweed Park engine remake

engge reimplements the Thimbleweed Park adventure engine in C++ and runs with ThimbleweedPark.ggpack1 and ggpack2 copied from the user's installation. It uses an SDL2-based framework and a modified Squirrel library; the author reports the game can be finished despite bugs.
